kLESSON With A MORAL.
When VIII oar Eyes he Opened to Thi
Grsnt National Calamity.


The year 1856 played sad havoc witt
many prominent men OF our country.
Many of them died without warning
passing away apparently in the full fiusl
If life.
Others were sick but comparatively
short time. We turn to our files and an,
,StoniShcd to find that most of them die,
IT apopleXy, of paralysis, of nervous pros
ration, of malignant blood humor. o.
Bright's disease of heart disease. of kid
ley disease. of rheumatism. or OF pneu-
monia.
II is singular that most OF our prominent
. who watches the telegraph reports, will b,
lStunished at the number of prominent vic
. Tins ut these disorders.
Many statements have appeared in oui
papeT with others To the effect that the dis
eases that carried off 81 many prominent
men in 1856 are really one disease, taking
different names according 10 the location OF
the fatal effects.

- It Is wtiu Individuals The cause of

especially when il can he shown that one
unsupported disease carries of most of
them, aud yet vast numbers of ordinary
men and women die before their time every
year from the same cause"
1t Is said If the blood is kept free from
uric acid. that heart disease. paralysis.
nervous prostration. pneumonia. rheuma-
tism. and many eases of consumption
would never br known. This uric acid
we are told, is the waste of the system. and
ii iS the duty of the kidneys to remove this
waste.
We are told that il the kidneys are main
tanned in perfect health. the uric, kidney,
acid is kept ont of the blood and
these sudden and universal diseases caused
by uric acid will. in a large measure. disap-
pear.
Bat how shall this be done' 1t is folly
to treat effects. Ii there is any known way
of getting at the cause. that way should be
known to the public We believe that War
ner's safe cure. of which So much has been
written. and 50 much talked of by the pub
lie generally, is now recognized by impartial
physicians ana the public aS the one specific
for such diseases.
Because public attention has been di-
rected to this great remedy by means of
advertising, some persons have not believed
in the remedy We cannot see how Mr.
Warner could Immediately benefit the pub
lie in any other way, and his valuable spe-
citic Sh0nd not be condemned beralfse
some nOStrumS have come before the public
in the same way. any more than that all
doctors should be condemned because so
many of them are incompetent.
Ii is astonishing what good opinions You
hear on every sid. of that great remedy.
and public opinion thus based upon AN ac-
tual experience. has all the weight and i'm
pOrtance of absolute truth.
At this time of the year. the uric acid IN
the blood invites pneumonia and rhematiSm.
and there is not man WHO does not dread
these monsters Of disease: but he need have
no fear Of them we are told. if he rid tn.
blood of the uric acid cause
These words are strong. and may sound
like an advertisement. and be- rejected as
such by unthiuking people. but We believe
they are the truth. and as such should be
spoken by every truth-loving newspaper.
